Well written, Chuck. In my opinion, if Morales actually got a Mantle correct, it would be by sheer luck. Has anyone ever seen an authentic Mickey Mantle authenticated by Chris Morales? I haven't.

Amazingly, when they ran their half-baked "sting" on JSA they were able to identify a real Mantle to send. So technically, there is at least one real Mantle with a Morales cert.

It's amazing that in all of the years that I have been looking at Morales certed autographs, that I have never seen one, that in my opinion, is authentic.

How is it possible, that I have never seen an authentic Chris Morales certed autograph. Chris Morales, who claims to have forensic training. Chris Morales, who calls himself a Forensic Investigator.

And, if my memory serves me correctly, Hollywood & Sports Memorabilia was the first client of Chris Morales when he first started authenticating sports autographs.

When will you guys learn? You keep pretending Morales is an authenticator, albeit an inept one who keeps getting it wrong.

He is not.

He is just another part of a well-oiled scam machine. He is a thief, and a liar. Nothing more.

His only purpose is to cert forgeries, and that makes it just about impossible to find a genuine item with his CoA.

Don't you ever get tired of playing the "How could he possibly have authenticated this one?" game?

David, they won't get tired of it. It's called feigning outrage. They have to compare Morales and their preferred TPA's skills and put them in the same category so they can show that their TPA is better than Morales at 'authenticating' autographs. That's the only way their TPA can 'save the day'.

But if Morales isn't an authenticator, they can't do that.

Excellent point, Travis.

They don't like the truth.

These threads are getting old. Same conversation, different item.

This is a great point...however, It is important to point out the obvious for an occasional newbie that may have just found this site.
